| Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music. Rok, this is the link to "Lady Marmalade" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4LWIP7SAjY | |
| Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music. So far, "Allen Toussaint's" music is the most interesting. I find the way he incorporates New Orleans history, musically, is something very few can do; I can hear Louis Armstrong, and the swagger of the "Second Line" in the music of "The Bright M... | |
| Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music. Nikonnola, what do you think of the "Second line" at funerals? | |
| Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music. Wynton is probably the best "living" trumpet player, and he sure can play Nawlins music.Although I’m a "jazz aficionado", my focus has been primarily on what emanated from the northern cities, consequently I neglected Nawlins, considering it "Dixi... | |
| Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music. I looked it up, and some say it dis way while others say it dat way; since Rok is one of the specialists on dis subject, I'll let him decide the proper way, but it don't make no difference because we'll go along with anyway you like to say it. | |
| Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music. If Dr. John says "N'awlins", Nawlins it is.The guy that told me "Nawlins" was born, raised and probably died in "New Orleans". (proper for his obituary) | |
| Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music. Tooblue, I forgot that I have that album "The Bright Mississippi"; it most certainly personifies Nawlins music.(I had a friend from New Orleans who told me the proper pronunciation was "Nawlins") https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kx23PzFb1R... | |
| Here is an interesting artist that's new to me, and I wanted to share his music. It's nice to have a connoisseur of "Nawlins" music join us.I was really into Dr John and I know Nawlins is missing him a lot. I could hear Dr John in Jon Batiste's music; or maybe I heard someone farther down the lineage who preceded Dr John.Toob... | |
| The term "High End" needs to die. Long live Hi-Fidelity! A rose by any other name is still a rose, "High End" has been around for a long time, and nothing will change.I see a new reality; fewer people can afford high end, so they want to change the name to "Hi-Fidelity". If that makes your rig sound be... | |
| The term "High End" needs to die. Long live Hi-Fidelity! Rok, I liked all your submissions; Gene Harris the best, but I don't want to change the subject of this thread.Your comment in regard to Stereophile and Stereo Review tracks with the subject of this thread. There was also the magazine "Audio"; ht... | |
| The term "High End" needs to die. Long live Hi-Fidelity! Rok, old buddy I've missed you! I still have many issues of "Stereo Review" that I read with warm feelings of a glorious past; especially the cartoon.I no longer subscribe to "Stereophile" because the times are long past when I could afford the e... | |
| The term "High End" needs to die. Long live Hi-Fidelity! The difference between high end and high fi is your bank account; one is thousands of dollars higher than the other. Kind of like the difference between "Stereophile" and Stereo Review; one is "high-end" while the other was hi-fidelity.Those who ... | |

| Blind fold hearing test Let me carry this conversation that began between me and Viridian to the end of the line.I shared my room in the hospital with a patient I really enjoyed talking to; that made for an easy stay, and we both had hip surgery. I told him I liked to p... | |
| Blind fold hearing test I don't recall him reviewing "high-end" tube amps, but that didn't matter because I wasn't buying them at that time, but the kind he was reviewing were mostly high quality SS "Mid-fi", and I agreed with him that those amps which measured about the... |
